Aitor Karanka: 'Emilio Nsue's versatility key for Middlesbrough'

Middlesbrough boss Aitor Karanka believes that new signing Emilio Nsue's versatility will be the Smoggies' key to success.

The Equatoguinean forward signed for Boro on a three-year contract from Real Mallorca, with both clubs waiting for international clearance before the deal can be finalised.

"He is a versatile player who I have known for five years. He is a good lad with a good mentality and approach to the game," Karanka told Middlesbrough's official website.

Nsue can play multiple positions as a wing-back and as a forward.
